A X. I.
T B E Angles of Reflexion, and Refraction, lie one and additionally the celebrity Plane with the Angle of Incidence.
A X. II.
The Angle of Reflexion is up to the Angle of Incidence.
A X. III.
If the Refracted Ray be came back directly back to the aim of Incidence, it fball be re-fracted into the road before defcribed by the in-cident Ray.
A X. IV.
Refraction out of the rarer Medium into the denfer, is made towards the Perpendicular, that is, of that the Angle of Refraction be lefs than the Angle of Incidence.
A X. V.
The mathematical function of Incidence is eitber accurately or really nearly terribly} very given relation to the mathematical function of Re-fraction.
wherefrom if that Proportion be acknowledged in anybody Inclination of the incident Ray, 'tis acknowledged in all the Inclinations, and thereby the Refra-ction in all cafes of Incidence on the celebrity refra-cting Body may even be determined.
therefore if the Refra-
